Fantastic lesson Chris, right where I am right now. You’re one of a few players look to now for tasteful, chord-based playing. Your articulated the last point really well. Take the hook or vocal melody as your starting point and make it your own. I find that singing, whether aloud or in your head and replicating on guitar really helps convey your individual character. Thanks 🍻
Thanks so much for watching i'm really pleased you found these concepts helpful! And thanks for such kind words regarding my playing, that really means a lot to me! 🙏🏻😊 That last point was a tricky one to articulate and I was worried I'd explained it in a way that maybe didn't make sense so thank you for saying that! I'm glad you got some value from it! The singing point is a really good one, approaching phrasing in a vocal-like manner really helps you play tastefully because it's almost impossible to over-play. Singers need to take a breath and we can picture our guitar playing in the same way!
Thanks so much and thanks for watching! I will be making the backing track, along with a few others available soon! I just need to find the best way to distribute them 🙏🏻. Really appreciate the support buddy!
Approaching your guitar playing like a singer is never a bad idea! Taking a break between phrases and thinking less like a 'guitarist' does a lot of good in my experience! Thanks for watching mate, I hope you're doing well! 😊👌🏻
Thanks for watching guys! Hope you found this one helpful! 🎸🎵🙏🏻

Would be cool for more of Karl's builds to be stateside. Hard to source over here atm. Maybe that will change down the line.
Absolutely, I would love to see Karl get some exposure in the USA - he's the real deal 👌.
Beautuful Track. Any chance providing the backing track ?

One (of many) issues is that I try to play too much.
Maybe I should sing in between playing 😂
